Easter Weekend Stash Update

I have been very lazy lately in keeping up with my very few stash updates.Nearly all has been small pick ups -

Knittingness' Stall at Glebe Markets on Easter Saturday where i picked up Elizabeth (Sock Yarn) from Wired For Fibre in Valour (Purple) and some fibre (because I will actually use the spinning wheel this year!) in Vineyard hand painted by Cathy (it is just stunning - purples, greens and blues...)13 balls of Grignasco Tango in Purple from Clegg's Sale in late March/April.Three Irish Girls Adorn Sock in Siobhan (Purple - who would have thought it)So that is 2 more skeins of sock yarn for my ever exapanding collection. Do i really need more sock yarn.

Yummy photos....

Ok so I have just exported my Ravelry collection to Excel to do some manipulation.

I have 180 skeins and balls of sock yarnThis equates to 14 kgs or 52,000 metres...

This is with a strategy this year of only buying sock yarn from independent sources (in person) or from destash.

My goodness - no wonder you and Fee have to have such ambitious knitting targets. I think I'd feel overwhelmed by so much yarn - you must find it hard to decide just which one to use for which project.
